Yosemite is only a 3 hour drive from where I live, so the wife and I decided to take a two day trip out there and do some photography. It is beautiful there!!! The pics I upload do it no justice (compression for one, and just seeing it in person for the other)

I took over 2000 pictures, but narrowed it down to 43 shots to reduce the Spam factor haha. The valley floor was tho only part of the park open due to a two week dump of snow on the place (had to put chains on the tires to get into the park)

I will definately be headed out there this summer though, I just HAVE to see the rest of this place!

El Capitan, world famous rock climbing face

Another view of El Capitan

Glacier Point (You can see where the rock face fractured and slid just a little bit)

Overlooking Yosemite Valley

One more shot of El Capitan (you have to see this structure in person, it is MASSIVE, this is looking at it from about 5 miles away)

Beautiful stuff! every inch of that place is incredibly picturesque...

Didn't see snow when I was there, but it was in May.

West of there, in the mountains near the sequoia forest, however, there was snow...
